Differences in years

(1/2) > >>

witdogg:
I've been told to get a '89 or newer...but why?   After '89 were there any big changes or are they the same until then end of production?  Are there any years to stay away from?

Thanks

witdogg:
Anyone?

JustinSB:
Stay away from the 2006's.

The last production year of the KX500 was 2004.

allan1353:

 From my understanding nothing really changed from 89 to the end but in late 90's I think they went with bigger forks....
 As for what years to stay away from I have no idea on that one.

Danger4u2:
In 1997 they went to a 3 bearing rear hub, two on the drive side. I think the graphics and tank color were the only thing to change till 2004.
